Restrict them to wolves size or smaller. Ban advertising. Lino rich tea is forever his name.

2014 what a brilliant weekend that was

I'm on the no flag side but also big hats can get in the sea too. Saw some crazy fool with a sodding great pyramid on his head!

Sorry to hear. Had this at a festival (sonosphere) and there's almost sod all you can do except move. There's no reasoning with over excited teenage lads. Our average is about 1 in 15 too. (After we moved, some crusty old bikers took our place - they didn't reason with the lads - the lads grew up fast)

Saw them first at download a few years ago. Their marketing have their heads on - what with star wars jedi survivor, on metallica's the blacklist, good merch etc. Saw them at download earlier in the month. Brilliant band and seriously good musicians.

Not to be Mr safety here, but the reason they don't want you sleeping in the carpark is fire - like they had at boomtown. Risk is minimal though.

Also, when paying say you're using barclaycard, get the discount then pay with whatever you have - works better on a phone app.

Pay the small performers that make the festival what it is. "exposure" ain't payment - it's exploitation.

This. It's already happening with sell out gigs, people buy extra, sell at profit for a free gig themselves.

On his Facebook:

Yep, they don't count people they just look at the jam at the back and close the doors, not reopening them either. They need to connect the people at the exits on the side who can see huge spaces to the doors at the back.

Lower Mead, commit yourself to earplugs and sleep to the beat hotel. Awful location, not sure why we always camp there. No one should, it's terrible. Noise, no loos, miles from anywhere, no water. Nightmare. This post was brought to you by campers of Lower mead who want to keep people away!

Stadiums are a nightmare, every time I say this is the last time I go to see a band in an echo chamber with bellends. Then another big tour rocks up for me to spend money on the worst way to watch a band. I are a clown

That's not a disaster...

Key difference to Reading/Download - you're camping inside the arena - so you can take all your booze/food with you. Makes a huge difference. It'll be way older than Reading and about the same as Download in terms of age groups. Personally, I find the Download crowd friendlier than Glastonbury - but only just. You will be having a laugh with total strangers. Drownload v. wet Glastonburied - about the same. Camping - unless you're unlucky, it's way quieter than Reading and about the same as Download. The site is effing huge - use Weds/Thurs to enjoy it since you'll be band chasing the other days. My favourite days are Weds/Thurs. Missed out on tix this year, so hand them over you newbie!!!
